The Rapunzel Syndrome – A Tale of a Gastric Trichobezoar
Authors: A. Dumitru, C. Tocia, E. Dumitru
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Abstract Text We present the case of an 11-year-old female patient who came to the ER complaining of epigastric pain. In the last four years, the girl suffered from trichotillomania and trichophagia. Clinically, a hard epigastric mass was present. The abdominal CT scan showed the presence of a gastric bezoar. Upper GI endoscopy confirmed the presence of a trichobezoar occupying the entire gastric lumen, extending to the second part of the duodenum. After three days, totaling 9 hours of work in the endoscopy room and using various endoscopic accessories, the success of the endoscopic extraction attempt was only partial, the complete removal of the trichobezoar requiring surgical intervention [1] [2].

EUS guided fine needle fragmentation (EUS-FNF) for the treatment of difficult biliary stones; a novel therapeutic indication for EUS. A case report with images
Authors: R. Sadik
Journal: Endoscopy (2023)

Methods A lady (65y) presented with abdominal pain and jaundice. The liver enzymes, ALP and bilirubin were elevated. MRCP showed Mirrizi’s syndrome Type I. An impacted stone in the cystic duct was obstructing a very short common hepatic duct and the intrahepatic biliary tree. A cholangiogram in the laparoscopic cholecystectomy with intraoperative ERCP confirmed the MRCP finding. The surgeon was unable to mobilize the stone out of the cystic duct. A transcystic guide wire was provided to an ERCPst and a balloon was introduced to the cystic duct by the ERCPst. The stone could not be mobilized to the common bile duct. The cystic stone was left and the bile duct was stented with a plastic stent.
